Seriously? OMG! WTF?

I didn’t know this until recently, but did you know that there is a high-security prison in Colorado that houses the worst criminals in America, like the late Unabomber and Timothy McVeigh?

Someone thought it would be a good idea to create a series about what would happen if those prisoners got out.

When a secret prison suffers a mysterious explosion that allows the nation’s most violent serial killers to escape, a former profiler is thrust back into a thrilling game of cat and mouse. Alongside a team of soldiers, spies, and special agents, she has no choice but to track down and recapture these dangerous criminals… before they kill again.

The Hunting Party premieres February 3rd on NBC!

NBC

NBC added Reba McEntire to their scripted lineup this season. And as much as I love Reba and Happy’s Place, it is not the new show everyone has been waiting for. That show is Suits: LA, a spinoff from the USA legal drama.

Today, the Peacock screamed out a premiere date, and what their winter schedule is going to look like.

Night Court is going into its third season on NBC in the Fall, but it will be missing another actor from the credits.

Kapil Talwalkar, who played the clerk, left ahead of the second season, and he was replaced by Nyambi Nyambi.

Now, we are hearing another lead is leaving the sitcom. India de Beaufort, who played Olivia Moore, the Assistant District Attorney who wants out of working night court, will get her wish.

“For the last two years I have had the immense privilege of driving onto the WB lot and walking onto a stage filled with the most hard working, loving and talented cast and crew that comedy has to offer. Today they received a season three pick up. Knowing and loving them as I do, I am beyond overjoyed for the most deserving people I know. I will miss the honor of being in their brilliant company, but my god. That was fun,” the actress recently wrote on social media. “My time at Night Court has come to an end. I greatly thank NBC, WB, After January Productions and our Writers / Producers / Directors / Cast and Crew for two incredible years. My favorite thing about this business is how often old friends appear in new places; that’ll be a day I look forward to greatly. Much love, India”

It is unclear if it was her decision to depart from the sequel, but I wish her the best.

Sadly, the person who needs to leave the show to make it better will not be leaving because the show is based around them. And it is not the brilliant John Laroquette.
